Formal FriendsKramer FriendsJust It was the night of the ball to honor past president's of the Jewish Center. Or, maybe Suzanne and I were going to some form of costume ball. I'm not sure we could ever know which.

To see that the camera was in tune, I took a picture of the people assembled to eat pizza ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0342 and then of the pizza ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0343 and fries. After a few more group pictures ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0344 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0345 Suzanne emerged ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0346 Ben finished most of his food ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0347 and Jane and Fred ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0348 decided to do Blair Witch project pictures.

Next, Jane took many pictures of us in our unusual costumes ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0349 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0350 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0351 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0352 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0353 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0354 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0355 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0356 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0357 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0358 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0359 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0360 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0361 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0362 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0363 as Sarah paced ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0364 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0365 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0366 withe the phone and Benjamin did his puppy dog ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0367 imitation.

Once we reached the ball, we recorded Peter and Seva ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0368 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0369 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0370 and what they were eating ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0371 and then Steven Just in various moods ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0372 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0373 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0374 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0375 until I got the picture I wanted ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0376 as Suzanne watched ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0377 and Sara ate ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0378 causing Suzanne to eat ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0379 until the 2 came together ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0380 and plates were shown ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0381 to end the mingling time.

Once at our table, we recorded the Levine's ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0382 and Peter's matching tie and cummerbund ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0383 as he read the menu ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0384 and the Just's posed ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0385 as did Larry and his wife ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0386 and the Leopold's ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0387 while we welcomed the bread course ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0388 in quite good spirits ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0389 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0390 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0391 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0392 ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0393 much to the amusement ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0394 of the guest photographer. The salad came ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0395 along with tasteless white wine ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0396 and chocolate that would later prove to be just as tasteless though the flowers looked good ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0397 but not edible. The entrees -- fish ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0398 and chicken ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0399 amused Peter ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0400 as did my vegetarian meal ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0401 but the chocolate cake ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0402 and alternating fruit dish ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0403 amused only me ../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0404 as the evening wound down.
